How long can George Russell last from pole tomorrow? We don’t think so given the poor pace shown on Friday. A step not entirely distant from that of Red Bull which does not seem in the best conditions to win. According to Ivan Capelli, who spoke during Sky Sport Italia’s post-qualifying Paddock Live Show, McLare but also Ferrari, which starts from the back, will be able to have a great race: “We’re back to the problem of tire ignition, sector 1. We took steps back a month. Here we saw everything. Neither Leclerc nor Sainz succeeded. Between Q2 and Q3, Ferrari did not improve he didn’t make the most of the front and rear axle, Leclerc had no grip entering the hairpin. It’s a stark contrast to what we saw yesterday on the yellow tire. Verstappen isn’t unbeatable yesterday, I think McLaren is solid with two drivers up front They can stay there close to the leaders, they are even more charged up than Mercedes and it could be a nice joker to play. It’s a particular track, they are all chicanes with violent braking where you enter the car and immediately look for the accelerator.”
